Akron's Sports Medicine Concussion Specialists
ALL concussions are serious and should not be taken lightly. NO athlete can return to play while still experiencing signs of a concussion!
The physicians will coordinate your care with your Primary Care Physician, athletic trainer, coaches, teachers/counselors and other healthcare professionals involved in your care and safety.
April 26, 2013, Ohio’s Return to Play Law went into effect for Middle School, High School and Youth Sports. ALL athletes exhibiting signs, symptoms or behaviors of a concussion MUST be removed from play, cannot return that day and will need a written release to return to play.
